Loftus-Cheek has now done himself no harm at all ahead of England's next game with Panama, especially with doubts over Dele Alli's fitness due to a quad injury.

The Spurs star appeared to be struggling with a muscle problem in the first half but remained on the pitch until the 80th minute.

With England fans now calling for Loftus-Cheek to start in their next game, many Chelsea fans took to Twitter to praise their midfielder and state that he should be in their starting XI at Stamford Bridge next season.
